Rhyming and Keywords

Question 8 • Strategies for Academic Success - EL1087

A strong example of using keywords would be

Answer
A
Using “good” to remember the word “hideous”
B
Using “hide” to remember the word “hideous”
C
Both of these
D
None of these

Explanation

A keyword is a familiar word that sounds like part of the word you are trying to remember. “Hide” resembles the beginning of “hideous,” so it can serve as a keyword; “good” does not have a useful sound connection to “hideous.” The correct choice is “Using ‘hide’ to remember the word ‘hideous.’”
